Well posting dozens of tasteless sex jokes while the worst of the storm is hitting New Orleans and we aren't getting much info as to what is or isn't happening there might just have been a very bad idea. Where is your self control? Did you really have to spam this thread, when there are thousands of others? Is it really too difficult for you to exercise a bit of self-restraint and act like an adult for a few hours?
Are you aware of how desperate some of the posts were over the last few days from freepers in the New Orleans area? For now this is the only thread for them to get early info on their homes and relatives, with the VERY REAL threat of many drownings? It may be some of their homes with water up to the rooftops(which has been confirmed for a couple of hours now). While your home is safe, why clutter this news thread with meaningless trashy banter just because it isn't you who is suffering or under real anxiety? Some freepers have lost most of what they own. Some may have lost neighbors. Is your own desire for self gratification through attention-seeking jokes anywhere near as important, that it needs to take place here? Ever consider the others who are suffering?
Golly. I'll never post on a breaking news thread so long as I live.
Where the hell were the moderators?
I've quoted this entire missive for everyone's benefit. If you feel like Diddle E. Squat does, I sincerely apologize. I sometimes try to ease a tense thread with some humor. If it wasn't appreciated here, I understand, and I respect that. I, too, being human, sometimes make bad judgement calls. If inserting what I hoped would be some tension-easing humor was one of those bad judgment calls, please accept my apology.
KDFW reporter James Rose reporting on Fox that south of Lake Ponchartrain is completely flooded. U-haul trucks covered, up to 8 feet of water. Houses under water. Looking very bad in the area he is in.
He is going roof to roof by high rise builsings. Don't know how.
